Mamata banerjee can't attend office: She says "I'am not Delhi based"!!

If they cannot attend office and like to spend time in their home, let them stay in their home forever. No need to come to office or take part in official works. No need to work for the government. Just sack them Fire them, kick them out from their office. These people don't deserve this responsible jobs

I think Lalu is one kind of person like this. He controls his whole party sitting in his office among his buffaloes....LOlz

It is not a word of a responsible minister. If she is not Delhi based then why she did agree to be a central minister rather than a state minster. If she want to do better for his constitution rather than whole country then she has no right to become central minster because she can do same work after becoming state minister. Such an answer of irresponsible leader.

Also make a provision for future in which we include a fixed attendance in parliament with work for his post otherwise replacement with another one.

IT IS REALLY SHOCKING TO NOTE FROM ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PORTPOLIO MINSTER (RAILWAYS) OPENLY SAYING THAT I WLL BUDGE OFFICE SINCE I AM NOT FROM DELHI.  THEN WHY DID SHE OPT FOR RAILWAY THE KEY MINISTRY? 

THE CHEMICAL MINISTER MR ALAGIRI IS NOT ATTENDING PARLIAMENT SECESSION FOR REASON HE CANT SPEAK HINDI AND WANTED TRANSILATOR

THE BEST SOLUTION IS TO STOP ALL BENEFITS. ONE THING IS CERTAIN THESE POLITICIANS ARE GOOD IN EXPLOITING THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND CAN MAKE ANY NUMBER OF EMPTY PROMISES FOR THEIR OWN BENEFITS

Yes this is a problem with every politician. If he is not in his contituency than it is said that they are not looking after their contituency and when they are not in their ministry it is said that he is not attending to the work assigned. A person can not be present at two places at one point of time. To overcome this problem they can have video conferencing on a daily basis. I have seen persons managing their offices from as far places as US and getting the results from the staff. Yeah you might say the result will not be 100 %. O.K. but the situation will improve.

THANK YOU AYAN.MINISTERS LIKE LALOO, MULAYAM ,NITISH,HAVE OCCUPIED CENTRAL MINISTER POSITION, LATER WANTED TO GET BACK TO THEIR HOME STATSE.THEY SHOW THEIR TRUE COLOUR.DEVE GOWDA BEING THE P.M SPENT MOST OF HIS TIME IN BANGALORE.MAMTA IS THE INDIVIDUAL WHO DROVE NANO FROM W.B.DEPRIVING HER FOLLOWERS OF EMPLOYMENT,DIRECT AND INDIRECT ,REVENUE GENERATION.LET HER BE CONFINED TO W.B SO THAT ONLY 1 STATE IN THE COUNTRY WILL BE THE LOSER AND ALL THE DAMAGE WILL BE CONFINED TO ONLY ONE STATE WHICH IS BETTER THAN THE WHOLE NATION SUFFERING.LET HER FOLLOWERS UNDERSTAND HER SELFISH INTENTIONS.

I know this is not the right IDEA. Ayan a good debate, but can wee any changes in the poitical system any time soon. One of the UPA misnister was enjoying in outside our country during the recent parliamentry session. What action had taken. Even after 63 years of freedom people are kiling each other for a drop of water - Yesterdays news Water war kills 5 in UP.

Ms. Mamata Banerjee ( now only Mamata, she writes ), from the very beginning, made it clear that she wants to be the CM of WBengal. She was offered a vital post in Central by our Prime Minister.

UPA Chairperson, PM and Congress, had to surrender to her demand of becoming Rly Minister for the sake of coalition politics. She wanted to "utilize" the resources, glamour and reach of Rly to attract WB voters in in fold of Trinunool. (blackmailing ... perhaps).

She never believes in the Collective Responsibility of a Ministerial team and often shows her decent against her own Govt and its Ministers. Example : against Chidambaram for his antiMaoists stances etc.

She runs her party in : One and only leader theory. Remains mostly in Kolkata for narrow politicking. Has turned an old and legacy organisation, the Indian Rly into an organ of vote catching machine  ( democracy mis-utilized ? )

When our PM knows all these, why he may not ask her to vacate her Ministerial berth in favour of some one .. even from her party ( well before 2011 State Assembly Vote in WB ?)

It is not her alone most ministries and ministers, urgently require continual monitoring. It will not be a bad idea to set up a separate body vehicle for the purpose. The best idea would be to have professionals manage this body without any political interventions and report matters to various Rajya Sabha committees for parliamentary follow up.

It's fine that Mamta wants to be at her place and work for the people of her own state and constituency. In fact, it lacks in most of our leaders who forget the constituency between the elections.

But, if she can't attend the office, Mamta must refuse to the ministrial berth and stay with people of her own state. Otherwise, she will prove herself unfit to be a minister and an irresponsible leader.

<p>Like we, the people of India, Vote for these politicians and bring them to power, we should treat them as our employees and the constitution should power us with the right to fire them anytime (even if they have not completed their tenure) if they have been found wanting in dispensing their respective duties. They should be made accountable like an employee who is given a raise or removed by the boss after having a look at his performance.</p>

These are the maladies of the Coalition govt. The political managers themselves do not find a solution by virtue of its minority / generosity. People needs to understand this kind of problem when voting. At-least they need to give majority to some party to rule over- may be a regional / national one. Neither, now ,do the people has nor do the govt has the power to control these kind of behaviors.I hope, Parliament is not a school either where every individual is trained for a particular purpose. If Parliament are meant for training these political leaders, where do we go for services for which they are elected?. Our trend shows parliament is a place where these guys are meant to be trained. Alas! Rule is to be changed ," Leaders are born but not trained/made". We have only trained leader not a born leaders. Look for people with born leadership qualities.With present scenario continues, at-least make it a point in the agreement  when forming govt that, they need to attend parliament without fail & possibly , a justification to the cabinet for absenting. However, this kind of hide and seek play will not help, unless the people who mandates try understand it better. COALITION may not control but, allow a bit liberal attitude to these guys.

I understand and agree that you all have put your ideas against Ms.Banerjee for she is not attending office and I liked her idea of eccentric office. Communication is developed so much that you can work from anywhere, we do it in sales. But you should be a doer.

What matters here is how much work is affected because of her personal interest???

Ms.Banerjee had very clear goal while joining govt and she is focused on it, and the bad part is the goal is self centered. It appears that this time she might succeed as well. I pray that ministers become so focused on public interest.

A politician without a sound base will not even serve his/her purpose  what to say of Nation or people. Such a politician should be fossilized or dated for posterity.

Politicians can do more damage if they attend the office bu turning every thing topsy turvy to see that yes men are there every where

Thanks to the Tech. Convergence, with which Today, telecommuting is possible. She can perform her duties as a Union Cabinet Minister, sitting anywhere on this Earth and travel to Delhi only when it is absolutly necessary like, Cabinet Meetings, Inter Ministerial Meeting, Inra-Ministerial Briefings, etc.

If only corporate world too adapt the telecommuting our economy would save a lot of travel, camping, etc. expenses.
